You come to me in the silent night 'speaking' silence of a distant dream It is this moment that matters, it leads to nothing Only my frail ego and the ruins of a heart that pretends to dance I had imagined tracing your skin breathing you in, to a memory of learning how to all over again In short measuring all the words that were spoken between us "Looking at the moon thinking of you" Filling these white nights to lay less claim to you Discretion between pretend and love Exchanging calculations we write, we think, we write Accidental Grace Discriminates hunger with random affections except my own the fond mistrusted Love me with your wisdom ,touch me with your words I let out the last secret the neighbors will whisper How from this wreckage do we rebuild ourselves? *** Nothing Beautiful In This World Is Ever Really Lost All Things Beloved Live on In Our Hearts.....Forever."

Greeneyes, I let out the last secret the neighbors will whisper These words really hit me. I don't know what you meant by them, but they meant alot to me. Hope this is "just" a poem, but if not, smile and keep looking up. Hugs, ME |

GreenEyes~ '"Looking at the moon thinking of you" Filling these white nights to lay less claim to you' What a sad little thought from such a pretty face !  Even your 'melancholy' is delicately done. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Very nice.. especially liked this.. "Only my frail ego and the ruins of a heart that pretends to dance" There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

You've never written anything I did not find very good and insightful = This (THIS) - IS EXCEPTIONAL -There are so many truly great lines/thoughts (witness the replies above I will not quote twice) = Needless to say a poem I will treasure - Last but not least - you are in my prayers and especially if there is any truth for you in what I've read |

Take a few words from a woman who has been in the wreckage, ashes rise to be a Phoenix, and we, as women, rise as the beautiful mourning dove......we doovercome...we really do. Kathleen Blake |

A fabulous poem. How from the wreckage do we rebuild ourselves? Well, if that is a question, the answer lies within your own hearts, for you always have had the answer, just re-phrase the question into a statement, We rebuild ourselves from this wreckage by.......... if you can not fill in the blanks you move on. Like I said, a simply fabulous poem. ~*~ I write ~ Therefore I am ~*~ |

Lauren, this is really beautiful, and yearning......"Love me with your wisdom, touch me with your words"......I believe that only the soul of a poet could long so to be touched with wisdom and words. I felt this one deeply.....nice writing, my friend! Live...Love...Be grateful for both!! |
